I have been doing everything within my power on a physical and spiritual level to maintain stable employment while also working on my spiritual advancement, and studying and trying to look into better employment. Recently I have been hired on to a fairly decent manufacturing company, and they seem to offer next to no leniency with any sort of flexible hours, same is the case for many jobs here in the united states. I have to be the one to drive since my wife has seizures, and be able to take my wife and son to doctors appointments.
My employer would have a problem with me taking myself to doctors appointments some days, or my wife and kids who have appointments. Literally told me that with a doctors note, I would still be wrote up for an unexcused absence.
What the fuck is a man to do, when he has loved ones with any sort of disabilities who depend on him and workplaces who won't offer any flexibility for hours? Along with most holding it against someone for having to see a fucking doctor, or getting an illness and can't show up?
To top that off, imagine having very strong technical skills, talent and strong intellect, but being declined and hearing like nothing back from 30 to 40 job applications? However I'm so close to just telling the next person who tests me to go fuck themselves. I've worked myself into the ground, studied until I've reached complete exhaustion, fought to overcome chronic congenital illness, just to be fucked over by non-accommodating workplaces and low wages.
I know I'll figure something out, but I am absolutely enraged, how is anyone even surviving out here? You say you have disabilities, and they fire you. You can't work? The government would just let you die in the streets. I know this from experience... I was so sick 5 or 6 years ago and couldn't work. Went to apply for disability, always was denied. I then decided to carve my way forward, and years later, this abysmal job market is really fucking me over.
May the Gods guide us to victory because this current world is a fucking joke. I don't mean to rant or bring my issues to the table. I just don't understand how someone can work themselves harder then ever, and just get fucked over repeatedly.
